If Argentina didn't have Messi I'd actually fancy Iceland to get a point. If Argentina are not prepared for a tough game they'll be in for a surprise.

As for the late game. Croatia really need to show everybody what they're about. Theres a lot of quakity and experience that should overwhelm Nigeria. They usually hit the ground running which is what I imagine they'll do here.

Their qualifying campaign was pretty good by anyone's standard. Topped their group, ahead of Croatia, Turkey and Ukraine. Winning all their home games.

Kari Arneson Vs Sergio Aguero though... This is another level for them.

To be fair, Iceland are a team with work ethic and went up against 3 teams with little work ethic, so its not as impressive as it looks on paper. Still, I'm not taking away anything from them. They did really well in the Euro's and came up against an on-form France and even snatched 2 goals after going 4 down.

I don't think they are a bad side at all. It will be an interesting clash.
